Made from stainless steel for lasting durability, corrosion resistance, and easy maintenance. Key benefits Improves comfort and control by preventing the bit from hitting the roof of the mouth and by reducing direct pressure on the tongue. Offers two leverage levels to suit different horses and tasks. The single joint creates a nutcracker action that concentrates pressure on the tongue and within the mouth to communicate the rider's intent clearly. How it works Stainless steel construction provides strength and reliability in daily use. The design prevents excessive bite pressure on the tongue while still delivering effective signal through the bit. Two adjustable leverage settings allow the rider to tailor the amount of leverage to the horse's needs during different activities. Use scenarios Young or sensitivemouth horses: Start with the lower leverage level to reduce bite pressure while maintaining clear guidance. Training sessions requiring precise control: Use the higher leverage setting to enhance communication and responsiveness without increasing overall discomfort. Riders dealing with bit resistance: Switch between leverage levels to find a balance between tongue pressure and poll engagement that encourages cooperation.
